Take command of Japanese and Allied forces during the crucial years of the
War in the Pacific. Maneuver naval, air and land forces from Japan to Ceylon
and the West Coast of the United States. Three interactive naval/air rounds
per monthly game turn recreate the excitement of fast carrier operations.
Playing pieces represent American, Japanese, Commonwealth, Dutch, and
Filipino land, naval and air units.

The original Carrier War was a great success. Now the game system has been
improved and all components of the game completely reworked. The rules and
reference booklets are much improved and in our new 3000 Line formats. Color
play aid cards incorporate rules summaries to ease learning the game and
speed play. The new map extends from Hawaii to the west coast. Air and land
unit headquarters minimize the number of counters in a hex.
Scenarios cover individual campaigns or the complete war through April 1944.
(On To Japan, a companion game, will extend Carrier War to the end of the
war.) This two player game is highly playable solitaire or by three or more
players
